Gonna go with the Eagles on this. I was very impressed by their defensive work against us and that late try will give them confidence. I don't really know anything about Russia though, apart from I heard they have a big scrum, and Artymev went to my school.

To be honest I thought USA would be running away with this. 10-3 with 63mins gone. Errors starting to show from Ruskies though.

We were right! The USA eagles just won 13 to 6. They won a world cup match, that doesn't happen every day, or ah decade.

It doesn't, and congrats. But that late hit from Todd Clever was not on. I'll be surprised if he plays the rest of the tournament.

I knew USA would win by 7, but the Russian lineout was despicable and they could nto maintain their rucks or form cohesion in attack. Sorry Nefilm theres gonna be a Wallaby beatdown on saturday, it would be worse but our best winger is out for most of the World Cup/

You're telling me something I already know.

This pool is going to be fun to watch, but too bad 3 teams cannot advance. For, you know, Italy's sake.
